The hype
Families love the space and the kitchen, but everyone hates the construction noise.
Marenas Beach Resort
$350-550 / noć
Rezerviraj ovo ako You want a family-friendly apartment on the beach with a full kitchen and don't mind sacrificing some quiet for convenience.
Zašto Ljudima Se Sviđa
- Full kitchens and washer/dryers in suites (huge for families)
- Direct beach access with chairs and umbrellas included
- Corner units offer spectacular wraparound ocean/bay views
Brzi pregled: A solid mid-range family condo-hotel that calls itself 'luxury' but is currently battling heavy construction noise from next door.
Pregledano od @Sin: I stayed in this suite at Marenas Beach Resort and it felt like a total home-away-from-home. Having a full kitchen was a lifesaver for snacks, and waking up to that ocean view from the 23rd floor was unforgettable. Definitely request a high floor if you can!
Što su rekli gosti koji su boravili ovdje
Reality check
The 'resort' feel is dampened by the noise and occasional housekeeping misses, making it feel more like a nice apartment rental than a full-service hotel.
- You are traveling with kids and need a washer/dryer
- You want to cook your own meals to save money
- You prioritize ocean views over total silence

FAQ & Skriveni savjeti
Sve što zaista trebate znati prije nego što rezervirate.
Is the construction noise really that bad?
Yes. Recent reviews from early 2026 cite 'nonstop' noise during working hours. If you plan to be on the beach all day, it's manageable; if you want to sleep in, it's a problem.
Is breakfast included?
Generally no. It costs ~$19-25/person at Piacere. You're better off buying eggs at Publix across the street and cooking in your suite.
Can I park my own car?
No. It is valet only ($35/night). The garage is tight and fills up.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the outdoor infinity pool is heated, but it is narrow and can get crowded with kids.
Do the rooms have balconies?
Yes, all rooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies, most with water views.
Is it close to South Beach?
Not really. It's about 30-40 minutes north. Sunny Isles is quieter and more residential.

5 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što dođete
💡The 'resort fee' includes bike rentals, but they often run out early in the morning.
💡The elevators can take 10+ minutes during check-out time (11 AM).
💡You might get a 'city view' that is actually a 'construction crane view'.
💡The sofa beds are notoriously uncomfortable — ask for extra toppers.
💡There is a hidden 'service elevator' that is sometimes faster if the main ones are jammed.
